A client asked me a question that took me off guard the other day. She asked, “What are occasional invaders?” In the pest control industry this is such a common term that sometimes I forget that it may be foreign to some people. This blog will help clear up the meaning of occasional invaders.
Occasional invaders in southern Utah and especially the St. George area are common household invading pests that wander into our homes looking for food, water, and shelter but at typically hard to predict as they have no “season”. They are typically not a major threat to your health and safety (except for the Desert Hairy Scorpion), nor will they be found all that often. However, when occasional invaders decide to enter your home, they’re definitely considered a nuisance. Ants and termites, for instance, are not occasional invaders. They have a predicable “season” which is Spring to early Summer. Are you find yourself dealing with occasional invaders? At Southwest Exterminators we use the Plug-N-Protect home protection service to pest proof your home. This way you don’t have to deal with unwelcome bugs.
The following is a list of the most common occasional invaders for the St. George area:
Turkistan Roaches
Crickets
Silverfish
Desert Hairy Scorpion
House Centipedes
& Wolf Spiders
